    My revanced has been out of date and non functional for a while, do you happen to recall how to update it? For some reason I’m struggling to remember the install process.

      Huh. My solution (for years now) has been to kill the YouTube ap entirely and watch videos on Firefox with uBlock Origin.

      I may have to see if Revanced is a better experience.

        Used to do that but recently switched over to ReVanced because Firefox pip would just show the corner of the webpage sometimes, or when I go to fullscreen the app would close, so I’d have to go back on Firefox again and fullscreen twice because the first time I fullscreen it doesn’t auto-rotate

      If you don’t want to deal with that, NewPipe is pretty good. I’ve been using it for a bit and love it.

      Can be found on f-droid or from their website

      Personally I use revanced extended from GitHub. It’s got additional options and they release an APK, so I just download and install
